Big Egos, Small Men....

Continuing from the past post, this one is to reiterate the same. Egos become big and people become small. We often try to project to others as if we are happy. More so, if we recently got trapped into a brawl. But somewhere in the process of projection, we lose ourselves. For being happy is never complaining, but projecting to be happy is! The ingenuity of human mind is great. Rather than putting it in useful things, we waste it in innovative ideas of show-off and comparison. No two people are different. Hence maintaining one's individuality becomes important. Somewhere in the process of ceasefire, we should not forget who we are. 

February month has been great so far. The twists and turns were amazing. I got to learn valuable lessons. Modern love is more spoken and less felt. People can stay away without caring for others. But it somehow misses the point that most of us are dependent on our close ones. If i say i am not, it just means that i am being a hypocrite. The very thought of what is happening amazes me to great extent. People say things which are great to hear. But unfortunately most of them are just said and hardly practiced.

I have tried to behave good and i am innately good. No doubt about that. I cannot show off and i cannot project my false image. If somebody needs me the most, i will be there without any purposes. That's how i am, that's how i have been. Keeping people above me and helping them till they smile. But unfortunately some body is teaching me the other way round... 'Big egos, small men'.....

Arbit Thoughts

"Ek baat honthon tak hai jo aayi nahin,
Bas aankhon se hai jhaankti,
Tum se kabhi, mujhse kabhi, kuch lavz hai wo maangti....

Jinko pehen ke honthon tak aa jaye wo,
Awaaz ki baahon me baahein daal kar ithlaaye wo,
lekin jo ye ek baat hai, ehsaas hi ehsaas hai..."

Very nice lines but so true. In these modern times, where egos are big and people small, the above lines often fit in somehow. You want to say many things but keep mum just to show off how egoistic you are.. The times go by and we are left, just to imagine how the good times were. People don't realize when they go through this. Unfortunately the rule of nature is that you only realize the value of something when you have lost it or when its too late. That, people and relations are far more important than money. Money can fetch you happiness but it can never fetch you the hands you need when you are ill, or when you are down or when you are in trouble. Then egos become small and people seem big automatically.  

Man is such a selfish animal, yes animal. Thats because he realizes what he wanted all through his life only on his death bed. And during his life, he wanders like an animal. Lets the good times pass by easily and cribs  about the wrong times.

At times, we go weak on people we love. But then we have to stand up some day and take a strong stand so that we can move on. After all, its painfully wrong if somebody takes you for granted. To me, silence is the most powerful means of communication. It reveals more than it covers. It tells more than it keeps mum. Idiots may take somebody's silence as his/her weakness but then they are idiots. You don't have to worry about them for if they care about you, they will turn up. There is a limit to how much good a person can be but at the end of the day, he is human after all..!

Its better to spend time with those who actually can appreciate its worth, who make you happy, who can acknowledge that you are spending 'your' time on them and that's the beauty of it, who will and will always be there and not temporarily turn up as and when they want, who are TRUE friends and not temporary or transient ones, who will put 'you' before they put themselves, who will put 'us' before 'me', who will go to great lengths to keep you happy and not let their egos come in between, who will be permanently sure about you and who will feel proud that they are your friends. I have some of them and thank God that he found me worth them.

I read somewhere that we should keep away from negative people and negative company because they affect your performance, your style and your precious time. I am a self driven person. I decide my own path. I decide whom to keep happy. I have never lost so far in what i have decided. Time has come to give everybody his/her due...
